The webtoon is inspired by Ancient Korea's Chakhogapsa or tiger and bear killers who worked during the Joseon era. The webtoon intermixes historical Korean myths with a modern urban fantasy storyline. The story follows the seven as they try to break from their tragic past and come to terms with their intertwined destinies.

The webtoon is produced by Redice Studio, who were art designers for webtoons such as Solo Leveling, Mookhyang: The Origin, and The Archmage. The webtoon can be read on Naver Webtoon's app.

The webtoon has been receiving a lot of hype online. BTS' fanbase, ARMY, are particularly excited about the new OST album. The announcement has led the fanbase them to reminisce about the release of BTS World's OST album, which was released in the summer of 2019 for the Netmarble game of the same name.

The album featured collaborations with artists such as Zara Larsson, Juice Wrld, and Charli XCX. Aside from the four singles, the album also featured seven instrumental tracks dedicated to each member.

In true ARMY fashion, the fanbase has already started theorizing about possible collaborations and songs for the OST.
